I was a teenage anarchist, looking for a revolution. |
|
I had the style, |

I was ready to set the world on fire. |

Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire? |
|
I was a teenage anarchist, but then the scene got too rigid. |
|

|
Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire? |
